2019 Intro: Four-star Oakland center Raymond Hawkins

Raymond Hawkins is one of the West Coast's top centers in 2019. Here's an intro into the four-star prospect's game and recruitment.

One of the best 2019 centers on the West Coast is Raymond Hawkins, a 6-foot-8, 220-pound post from Oakland (Calif.) Bishop O’Dowd.

Hawkins has decent size, wide shoulders, long arms, plus athleticism and plays extremely hard. He’s a good rebounder who can score on the offensive glass, with his hook shot or by taking opponents off the dribble.

“I try to bring a lot of energy to my teammates,” Hawkins said. “I’m very athletic, can put the ball on the court, can hit a jump hook or attack the rim. I want to be able to dribble and shoot like a guard.”

Four schools have offered Hawkins early, as Nevada, Montana, Wyoming and Pacific have all come through with offers.
